Being A Good Listener

Being A Good Listener | Companion Activity supports development of attentive listening skills from the life skills video through interactive tasks. Students answer yes/no and WH-questions, sequence listening behaviors, and retell the video visually. Problem-solving scenarios address distractions and respectful listening.
